A little bit of mathematics

Instruction

Great! Remember, NULL is a special value. You can't use the equal sign to check whether something is NULL. It simply won't work. The opposite of IS NOT NULL is IS NULL.

SELECT id
FROM user
WHERE middle_name IS NULL;

This query will return only those users who don't have a middle name, i.e., their middle_name is unknown.

Exercise

Select all columns for each car whose price column has a NULL value.

Stuck? Here's a hint!

Type:

SELECT *
FROM car
WHERE price IS NULL;
